After a while, the two people competing for the pearl had already raised the price to 150,000 taels.

In Qi Yue's opinion, although the bead was big, it was an exaggeration to use it to calm the nerves. It would be better for her to give her a tael of silver to prescribe medicine.

But it's really fun to watch these two bicker.

One scolds your mother, and the other scolds your father, fighting each other and not giving in.

Everyone wants to get that bead.

During the fierce bidding, both of them gradually regained their original voices and even took off the wigs on their heads.

Qi Yue became more and more certain that the little man among them was Song Gensheng.

Now that we know each other, don't let him fight for a pearl. It just so happens that she has two big boxes in her space.

Although it is not as big as this one, it is enough for both playing and medicine.

With this in mind, she took out a piece of paper and a homemade charcoal pen from her arms, and wrote three words on it.

"Gantang, give this to the little man and bring him over."

"Yes, son."

Mrs. Zhang responded and left quickly.

Here Song Gensheng read the three words "Stone City" written on the note and was puzzled. Then he saw a handsome young man stretching out his hand to greet him from the high platform.

The face in front of me is elegant and square, especially the pair of willow-leaf eyes, which are shining like a person.

He immediately became interested, so he threw down the pearl that was being auctioned, said to the person who was vying for it, "It's an advantage for you," and then followed Mrs. Zhang to the stand compartment.

For a while, Qi Yue didn't take the initiative to reveal her identity. She wanted to tease him, so she asked him to sit down.

"It must be younger brother Gensheng. I heard the sound from a distance."

Song Gensheng sat down carelessly, picked up the food next to him and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Who are you? You look a bit like my sister Yue'er."

Qi Yue suppressed her laughter and continued to fool him.

"You are talking about Qi Yue, right? I am her brother, my name is Qi Jia. I heard her talk about Stone City before, and even drew your appearance. When I saw her this time, I felt a little familiar, so I thought about it. Try, I don’t want to be a younger brother."

Song Gensheng was a straightforward person and did not feel that Qi Yue's words were full of loopholes. Instead, he felt cordial and stood up to say hello.

"It turns out he is a fake brother, disrespectful and disrespectful."

Qi Yue could hardly hold it in anymore, but she still held back from laughing.

"Sit down quickly, brother Gensheng, why are you fighting for that bead with that bastard? Is there anyone in the family who has trouble sleeping at night?"

"The fake brother doesn't know. My eldest brother got Lin'er last month. He cried day and night. I heard that there are a lot of good things here, so I looked for them. I didn't expect them to be so expensive."

At this point, he suddenly lowered his voice and said with a wink, "I would also like to thank my fake brother for calling me here, otherwise I would have caused a mess here."

Qi Yue was surprised, "Why is that?"

"I don't have any money."

"You still dare to bid if you don't have money. It's okay if you don't succeed. If you fall into your hands, you won't be able to get the money. How are you going to get out of here?"

Song Gensheng chuckled.

"That's why I said I would make a big mess here. When the time comes... hehe... take advantage of the chaos and grab things and leave."

Qi Yue couldn't help but feel ashamed.

He is truly worthy of being the robber Gu Yang, he is so courageous.

But when I think about him being as strong as steel and not afraid of swords and hidden weapons, he might really be able to escape from this place.

The two chatted for a while.

Qi Yue soon learned that Song Gensheng had actually gone to Beiyuan Palace after the two had been separated for more than half a year.

However, he thought she was Qi Jia and did not reveal his true identity.

At this time, the third item was already being auctioned on the stage.

This was a weapon with a simple shape and a cold light. When Song Gensheng saw it, he opened his mouth and wanted to bid again. He probably thought that he didn't have any money, so he stopped and continued to eat from the fruit plate on the table.

"Which knife do you like?"

"Yeah." Song Gensheng chewed the fruit in his mouth and said vaguely, "Forget it for now. Come back next time when you have enough money."

This child is both messy and sensible. Knowing that his sister Yue'er's fake brother is here, he is worried about causing trouble.

Qi Yue smiled slightly and said to Mrs. Zhang.

"Gantang, no matter what the price, take the knife."

"Yes, son."

Mrs. Zhang is obviously well versed in auctions.

She did not join the bidding immediately, but when everyone gradually gave up bidding, she suddenly shouted a high price of one hundred thousand taels of silver and successfully won the knife.

Soon the waiter at the auction house delivered the knife and the box containing it.

Mrs. Zhang took the banknote and the waiter and quickly completed the delivery procedures.

Song Gensheng seemed to really like this knife and kept looking at it with his eyes.

"Fake brother, do you also like knives?"

"Yes, I like it."

Qi Yue took out the knife and tried it in his hand. It weighed more than sixty kilograms. He tapped the back of the knife with his hand and it made a clanging sound, which showed that it was a good knife.

Song Gensheng suddenly remembered something and said with a smile, "The fake brother was probably bought for Sister Yue'er. I think she also uses a knife."

Qi Yue heard him call him a fake brother and said it sincerely, but she couldn't bear to tease him anymore and put the knife in front of him.

"This is for you, try it."

Song Gensheng was surprised and happy.

"Given it to me? Sister Yue'er doesn't want it?"

Qi Yue rolled her eyes helplessly.

"This knife is rough, she likes it to be more delicate."

"Oh. Thanks to the fake brother..."

Seeing him standing up with the knife in hand and wanting to thank him again, Qi Yue hurriedly held it with her hands.

"Brother Gensheng, you don't have to be polite. Just treat it as a gift from Qi Yue."

Song Gensheng then swung the knife a few times and sat down with satisfaction.

After that, another book called "The Secret Technique of Qi Men" was being auctioned on the stage, and there were a lot of people snatching it up.

Qi Yue wasn't interested either, and just as she was thinking about leaving, she saw that Mrs. Zhang beside her looked a little strange.

I saw her clenching her fists and staring closely at the stands opposite.

That was their oblique profile. Because there was a thin curtain, only three people sitting inside could be vaguely seen.

At this time, the man in the middle raised his hand again and shouted a high price of two hundred thousand taels of silver.

When Mrs. Zhang heard the voice, she shrank instantly, her look clearly showing fear.

Qi Yue saw it and murmured in her heart.

Could it be that Mrs. Zhang refused to come to the black market with her because she was afraid of meeting this man?

"Gantang, what kind of crappy book is that? Worth two hundred thousand taels of silver?"

"Ah...what did the eldest...gongzi say?"

Mrs. Zhang suddenly came back to her senses and hurriedly wiped her red eyes.

This did not help Qi Yue.

This obviously looks scary, but why are you crying?

"I said there must be a reason for this man to buy that tattered book for two hundred thousand taels of silver. Why don't we snatch it away?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang shook her head repeatedly.

"No, miss, that's not a good book. Don't spend that money."

Qi Yueqi asked, "How do you know it's not a good book?"

"Because the bidder is the most filthy and vile person in the world."

When she said this, Mrs. Zhang showed hatred in her eyes and her muscles tensed up, as if she was ready to rush out at any moment.

Qi Yue saw this and was even more confused.

Thinking that Mrs. Zhang had helped her double her money from selling medicinal wine prescriptions, she decided to help her.

"In this case, it is even more important to seize this tattered book and destroy it. Otherwise, if the bad guys get their hands on it, there will be another disaster."

As she spoke, she took out a stack of banknotes from her arms and slapped them on the table.

"Gantang, tell me the price, your young master wants to order this book!"

What are you afraid of? She has plenty of money!
